Ahoy, mateys, and welcome to the Game Buoy podcast – your twice monthly port of call for gaming news and views that maybe aren’t on your radar, but most definitely should be! On this episode, recorded Sunday, July 26, 2015, Captain Spike and First Mate Slagkick discuss some notable examples of spiritual sequels in gaming!

This week, Captain Spike and First Mate Slagkick look at spiritual successors. Whether a game was changed to a new IP during development, made by the same creative team but done elsewhere, or revived by original creators using Kickstarter, the Podcast Pirates look at some notable examples of spiritual successors, how they came to be, and what they share with their original games.
